Saudi Arabia Flip-Flops On Fighting ISIS

Secretary of State John Kerry announced he made a big breakthrough: that the government of Saudi Arabia would join the fight against the Islamic State!

But when the smoke cleared from the mirrors of that announcement, it was discovered that the so-called ‘help’ the Saudi leaders were offering was their ‘blessing’ for The United States to send in U.S. soldiers to fight The Islamic State.

The Saudis offered no money, no bombs, no airplanes, no soldiers, nothing–except their ‘blessing’ to see our soldiers spill their blood, and our country to spend our money, fighting The Islamic State. Oh, and they also said that since The Islamic State didn’t represent Islam that fellow Muslims could fight them if they so choose.

Oh, and the Saudis are our allies. But with allies like this, who needs enemies?

But if this was not duplicitous enough, the Saudi government first supported the overthrow of the government of Syria before they opposed the overthrow. Apparently, they feared that ISIS appeared stronger than they did; so to look tougher, they rounded up some Christians in Saudi Arabia and tortured them.
